Description: This cocktail captures the essence of late summer transitioning into early autumn, a period of nostalgia fueled by warm days and crisp evenings. The drink evokes memories of leafy walks and introspective moments, offering a dry palette with a hint of spice and the earthiness of fall, ensuring a refreshing yet complex experience without any sweetness.

Combine the bourbon, dry vermouth, apple cider vinegar shrub, Cynar, orange bitters, and aromatic bitters in a mixing glass filled with ice. 2. Stir well until well-chilled. 3. Strain the mixture into a chilled old-fashioned glass. 4. Express the oil from the orange twist over the top of the drink and discard the twist. 5. Garnish with a cinnamon stick to evoke the scents of autumn. Glass: Old-fashioned glass
